Benefits of technology

The glass tube pieces 3 can also be arranged in the distributor tube 2 in such a manner that their entry points (likewise with breakage surfaces or milled cut surfaces) come to lie in the middle region of the tube 2. In this arrangement, contaminant particles can deposit at a level below that of the entry points. Nozzle passages, which are sensitive to contamination, are thereby less often disturbed by contaminant particles; and the occurrence of hindrances to the through-flow is thus reduced.

Problems solved by technology

Differences with respect to the geometry of their outlet apertures exist as a rule between the individual base holes of the out-flow system, as a result of which different out-flow rates result and thus a uniform distribution cannot be achieved in practice.
In addition, ring showers are suitable only for columns with relatively small diameters, and a uniform distribution of the outlet apertures over the entire cross-section is not possible.

Embodiment Construction

The distributor device 1 shown in FIG. 1 consists of glass and has the following construction: a plurality of distributor tubes 2 with nozzles 3 which, in accordance with the invention, are manufactured of glass tube pieces; an inlet tube 4 placed ahead of the tubes 2; and a bell or funnel 5 to which the liquid to be distributed can be supplied and in which the liquid collects up to a level depending on the outflow rate. The nozzles are all arranged at the same height so that the same outlet conditions result in each case.

FIG. 2 shows a distributor tube 2 which is lying on its side and to which two glass tube pieces 3 serving as nozzles are attached by melting of the glass. The end face 30 of the tube piece 3 containing the outlet aperture 31 is an untreated mill-cut or broken glass surface. Thanks to this feature, the borders of the outlet apertures 31 are formed by edges produced by means of mill-cutting or glass breakage and are otherwise untreated. Practically the same outlet co...

Abstract

The distributor device for a column includes a system of distributor tubes and nozzles for a fluid. The outlet apertures of the nozzles are preferably all arranged at the same height. At least a portion of the nozzles are manufactured of similar glass tube pieces. Each outlet aperture has a border which is formed by an edge produced by a milling cut and is otherwise untreated or by an untreated, broken glass edge.

Description

1. Field of the InventionThe invention relates to a distributor device for a column including a system of distributor tubes and nozzles for a fluid and it further relates to the use of the column and / or the distributor device.2. Description of the Prior ArtAs regards form and material, a large number of distributor devices are known by means of which liquids can be uniformly applied to the packings of columns. For the distribution of corrosive liquids, glass inlet inserts for the point-wise application of liquid and ring showers are known commercially. The ring shower consists of a ring-shaped glass tube which has a base hole out-flow system. Differences with respect to the geometry of their outlet apertures exist as a rule between the individual base holes of the out-flow system, as a result of which different out-flow rates result and thus a uniform distribution cannot be achieved in practice. In addition, ring showers are suitable only for columns with relatively small diameters,...
